The Emerald School Of Living And Learning Mission Statement

For my observation, I went and visited Ivor Dent school, Ivor Dent is the new school that has opened near Abbottsfield, Edmonton. The school was named after a man named Ivor Dent, he is most well known for opening the LRT system, however he was also the principal of Rundle School in 1980. This is important to note, since Ivor Dent opened three other schools in the neighbourhood were closed, Rundle elementary school, Lawton elementary and R.J. Scott Junior high. Due to the mix of the three schools Ivor Dent welcomes kids from kindergarten all the way to grade nine, this year they have had 423 students enroll. This school has been built in a low-income community and is labelled as an inner-city school. To meet the extraordinary needs of all their students Ivor dent offers regular classroom programs, behavioral and learning assistance program and full day kindergarten.

The students were introduced to multicultural activities taught through everyday experiences. Teachers had their classrooms stocked with multicultural music, art supplies, books, wall hangings and snacks. The students were encouraged to explore all of these items throughout the day.

In “Where the Heart is,” Mara Casey Tieken recalls her experience in a predominately-white town located in Delight, Arkansas. Tieken explains that Delight is at risk of losing its school due to state legislation favoring consolidation. Consolidating Delight’s schools with the neighboring town of Murfreesboro school would be detrimental to their economic and social success. The schools serve as a primary source of income and entertainment. The community and school systems share a connection that bared a symbiotic relationship, in which one’s survival is vital to the survival of the other.

The author’s account informs the reader about how and why the school systems in Delight are of essence in maintaining sustainability in Delight.

My technology journal is based on the website www.janusacademy.org which is a website for Janus Academy which is a Calgary based independent non profit school for children with autism. This website features a very in depth about us section explaining their mission statement and values, also including information on ASD.

When driving past the modest copper bricked building topped with a bulky black roof, one might only see it as just a school for children; however, there is so much more to it than what meets the eye. The large black cross that clings to the front entrance wall suggests to its visitants the school’s religious affiliation which is further evidenced by the name “St. Louis” in slate black lettering on the wall parallel to it. St. Louis Catholic School was established in 1964 in Princeton, Illinois as a pre-school through eighth grade elementary school and is still today.

Throughout Mrs. Krouse’s long teaching career, she has been taken many places to do what she loves. As she has moved from city scene to suburban areas, she has come to learn what exactly she prefers from her neighborhood.

Not everywhere has worked out for her, like in New York, where the city scene just didn’t provide the comfort she was looking for. Glenside, on the other hand, has provided this unique dynamic of being in a suburban area, while also allowing for her to be in close proximity to the city. Also, being able to live in these city like environments has allowed for Mrs. Krouse
